Rim/Wheel Size

#1
Just purchased an Azusa frame and fork setup from a local shop without wheels... Running a 6.5 motor if that matters. 6'2" tall around 180lbs.
:scooter:


What rim size should I go with? Going to order from OldMiniBikes warehouse. Thinking either the 6" Astro wheels with 410 X 350 X 6 tires or an 8" set of the Spinners and 480 x 400 x 8 tires.

And what about tires.. Tubeless or tubed? Thanks in advance!

if you run a split rim like the astro you have to use a tube, you can use a tube or tubeless tire on that wheel..... You can only run a tubeless tire on a tubeless style wheel, unless you use a tube.......IMO I'd run the astro or some other 6" wheel on that frame....I think they look more proportionate than an 8" wheel...again that's just my opinion........

Are you going for a street or trail look?
